SUMMARY:Online Author Talk | Jason Reynolds: Beloved Characters & Portrayals of Resilience
DESCRIPTION:Join best-selling author Jason Reynolds as we discuss his latest work\, Coach\, the fifth–and last–entry in the highly popular Track series. Following the immersive stories of Ghost\, Lu\, Patina\, and Sunny\, it’s finally time for Coach to shine in his own book as we discover: Who was Coach before he became an inspiring leader?\nBorn little Otie Brody\, he was obsessed with Mr. 9.99 (aka. Carl Lewis) and Marty McFly from Back to the Future. Like Mr. 9.99—and his own dad—Otie is a sprinter. Sprint free or die is practically his motto. \nOne day his dad\, who is always away on business trips\, comes home with a pair of Jordans\, fine as fine can be. Otie puts them on and feels like he can leap to the moon. But one morning he wakes up to find his brand-new secret weapon kicks are missing—right off his feet! Not only are the Jordans missing\, but so is his father!\nRegister now to join in on the online conversation about the final installment to Jason Reynold’s Track series! \nYou can register for this free\, live\, online talk here. \nThis is one of a series of free\, live-streamed author talks made possible through the Library’s partnership with Library Speakers Consortium (LSC). You can learn more about upcoming presentations on our LSC microsite\, as well as watch recordings of presentations that you were unable to attend live. \nAbout the Author: Jason Reynolds is an award-winning and bestselling author.
